    I can find a link to some info one of the '57 Ford forumn guys did on making the push ****on Edsel shifting work. Didn't pay much attention, but he made some sort of an electronic box under the front seat to eliminate the apparently common shifting problems.

    Have a friend who is an electrical engineer and he finally put a floor shift in his 58 Citation. Not sure what the problem was but he struggled with shifting and fluid leakage issues, he did have it working several different times but seemed like some other problem would always crop up so he gave up.

    A couple more turned up in Fredericksburg, VA this week. Does anyone from that area recognize them?

    That last purplish-blue one is perhaps my favorite one of the 52-54 era. Just stunning.

    It's amazing just how good the 55 Ford trim looks & fit's this '54 coupe. I looks like the car rolled off the ***embly line like this. HRP

    Digging through some of my photos from 2018 and found this one. I don't remember any of the details on this one, and haven't seen the car since that show.

    Lots of mods on that one, wonder what the chopped convertible top looks like up. Dodge grille, side scoops, hood mods from? Bet you could find more in person.

    Hood mods look like a Pontiac, Olds headlights are one of the best custom idea. Would be great to see the rear view..
